Sexual orientation is an adult attraction to other adults, About.com adoption expert Carrie Craft explains. Pedophilia is an adult sexual attraction to children. Yet, myths that link gay men with child abuse continue to circulate, especially in the wake of the latest priest-child abuse scandals.

122<quoted text>When you find time.....please edict and correct Strong's Greek Lexicon...would appreciate it...Then do the same for the English dictionary: synagogue:house of God, house of prayer, house of worship, place of worship - any building where congregations gather for prayer....This is also saying a synagogue is a church!!!!!! Plus it says a church is a synagogue!!!!!

If a synagogue is the same as a church, why do Christians not go to synagogues to pray and worship the supposed Jewish god?

This is an example of how quickly Life can be snuffed out..The Grand father of one of these young men attend the Church I Pastor...Two men walking along the railroad crossing at Howe Springs and Bannockburn roads in Florence County have died after being hit by a train, according to Florence County Coroner Keith Von Lutcken.The 22- and 28-year-old men were hit from behind just before 6 pm Thursday evening, according to Amtrak officials.Lutcken says the men appear to have been struck from behind.Officials say the Amtrak train was traveling from New York to Savannah.About 133 people were on the train. They were not injured.The railroad crossing was shut down while emergency crews were on the scene, but has since reopened.The victims both lived in Florence and their names will be released Friday morning.The accident is under investigation by CSX, Florence County Coroner's Office and the Florence County Sheriff's Office.The incident is under investigation.~~~These young men ...While attempting to avoid being hit by one train...stepped into the path of another going in the opposite direction.They were caught between the two trains and there was nothing left to identify of their bodies, but their library cards and billfolds.How very tragicPlease pray for their loved ones

Your god could see the train coming and he did nothing to prevent the tragedy ... so all went according to his will.

You best stop complaining about the will of the god that according to theology created evil. He's probably on the same level of mental abilities as are you. Sarcasm intended

122<quoted text>The truth: A name given at Antioch to those who believed Jesus to be the Messiah, A. D. 42, Ac 11:26 It seems to have been given to them by the men of Antioch as a term of convenience rather than of ridicule, to designate the new sect more perfectly than any other word could do.

Are you indicating that the Jews (faithful to Judaism) came up with the word Christian so that Catholics could branch OFF of Judaism with a new sect???

Thought for the day:

During these serious and troubled times, people of all faiths should remember these four great religious truths:1. Muslims do not recognize Jews as God's Chosen People.2. Jews do not recognize Jesus as the Messiah.3. Protestants do not recognize the Pope as the leader of the Christian world.4. Baptists do not recognize each other at the liquor store.

<quoted text>GOD'S word...saysGeneva Boble commentary 1599Romans 1:28(11) And even as they did not like to retain God in [their] knowledge, God gave them over to a (m) reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;(11) He proves the unrighteousness of man by referring to many types of wickedness, from which (if not from all, yet at the least from many of them) no man is altogether free.(m) To a corrupt and perverse mind, by which it comes to pass that the conscience, having been removed by them, and they having almost no more remorse for sin, run headlong into all types of evil.~~~~So you refuse to retain the knowledge of God in you mind and have become every whit reprobateThere is not neutral stance...You evidently are choosing to be lost worlds with out end...

Would you please post some scriptures that don't agree with your stance on issues.

I'm SURE they exist, as that bible is a book that has been USED for all purposes.

Maybe if everybody thinks as you do, the world will be perfect ... according to you.

If it was or is a god's will, how could it change one way or the other?

It's VERY plain that the men always did and do make the rules according to their own wills.>>>>>>> >>>>>>> >>>>>>> >>>>>>> >>>>>>> >>>>>>> >>>>

Pope Francis, in his own words, on the issues

"For the moment I'm in favor of maintaining celibacy, with its pros and cons, because there have been 10 centuries of good experiences rather than failures. It's a question of discipline, not of faith. It could change."

You said it right.

About 10 yrs ago we got a guide named Cliff. He showed us how to use the wind and fish off the islands; jigging off the rocks. So that's usually our most success on that lake.We seem to get the Crappies too on that lake, and from what I understand, not allot of people do. Well, you never know.. My brother or uncle could call me up that week, and we'll be heading up. If its spur of the moment like that, they usually camp down from the casino. I haven't done that yet. I prefer a bedroom and kitchen. lol.

Of course it could change, we know that, we've always known that. It's a discipline, a practice, not dogma. And no one ever said it was dogma. lol, nothing new here, June.

Fancy words will get you no-where. It's plain that no god on earth or in the sky tells those men what to believe.

They always made it up as they went, and they always will, as long as people support their lies.

Centuries of Catholics and Protestants killing each other over words interpreted in VAIN has lead to nothing that resembles peace ... and still, that one word "salvation" makes you ignore all else in the hopes that a Jew came to the world from the sky with a message that only those who believe as Christian's believe will be saved.

And Christians don't agree and never have agreed on who is worthy of the blessing of "salvation." They all preach that it is THEY and ONLY THEY who gleans sparkling truth from words.
